This document provides tips on how to fix common zipper problems. It discusses solutions for when a zipper is stuck, the slider is broken, the teeth do not close properly, or the slider slides down. Suggested remedies include using graphite from a pencil to lubricate stuck teeth, applying a zipper lubricant, replacing just the broken slider, realigning teeth that have popped up, ensuring the teeth couple properly at the bottom, and replacing the entire zipper if other solutions do not work. Temporary fixes are also suggested, such as using a ring or rubber band to keep a slider from sliding down.
